G4S SECURE SOLUTIONS (USA) INC.
G4S Secure Solutions (USA) Inc. is a Florida corporation, document number 217838 on the Florida Department of State corporate register, filed on 4 December 1958. Florida’s register records it as an active domestic for-profit corporation, with annual reports filed on 27 April 2025 and 28 April 2026 and a principal office at 1395 University Boulevard, Jupiter, Florida 33458. The company provides contract security services: Connecticut’s register classifies it under NAICS 561612 (security guards and patrol services), and its current federal contracts cover guarding, detainee transportation and ground transportation.
The company is the former The Wackenhut Corporation. Wackenhut’s annual report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2001 states that it was incorporated in 1958 to continue businesses first established in 1954, and gives Florida as its state of incorporation and 59-0857245 as its employer identification number. The Florida record carries the same number in its FEI field, so the 1958 register entry is tied to the former SEC filer by number, not only by name. Florida’s event file records a name-change amendment to The Wackenhut Corporation on 12 September 1959 and the amendment to G4S Secure Solutions (USA) Inc. on 3 May 2010; Connecticut dates the change in that state to 1 June 2010.
As The Wackenhut Corporation, the company had Series A and Series B common stock listed on the New York Stock Exchange (WAK and WAKB). For fiscal 2001 it reported consolidated revenues of $2.8 billion and about 68,000 employees, covering security services, correctional services and staffing; these consolidated figures include businesses it no longer reports. It filed Form 15 on 8 May 2002 to terminate its SEC registration, and no company-level revenue or headcount has been published since.
Federal award records on USAspending.gov (unique entity ID H5M2KCZCA9M3) show G4S Secure Solutions (USA) Inc. contracting in its own name. In federal fiscal year 2026, obligations to it totalled about $84.0 million from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, including task orders for detainee transportation in the San Antonio and Los Angeles areas. A further $2.5 million came from U.S. Customs and Border Protection for ground transportation and facility guard services, under an order running from 30 September 2026 to 29 September 2027. These are obligated contract amounts, not company revenue.
Beyond Florida, the company is registered as a foreign corporation in several states. Examples are Pennsylvania (filing 0000377929, 30 October 1959), New York (DOS ID 131149, 17 August 1960), Connecticut (account 0048521, 19 July 1963), Virginia (F0176257, 20 August 1964) and Colorado (19871045867, 4 May 1970, recorded in good standing). Those are dates of qualification in each state, not incorporation dates. An active status there shows that filings are current, not trading volume or financial standing.

Shareholders
Shareholders of G4S Secure Solutions (USA) Inc.
No current shareholder of G4S Secure Solutions (USA) Inc. is named in any public record reviewed for this profile. The Florida corporate record, which is the register of incorporation, has no field for shareholders, holdings or percentages. The same is true of the foreign-qualification records in Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New York, Virginia and Colorado.
The last public disclosure about who owns the company dates from 2002, when it was still The Wackenhut Corporation. Its merger proxy of 9 April 2002 described a merger agreement dated 8 March 2002 among Wackenhut, Group 4 Falck A/S and Milestone Acquisition Corporation, which the proxy calls an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Group 4 Falck. Under that agreement Milestone was to merge into Wackenhut, Wackenhut would survive as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Group 4 Falck, and every Series A and Series B share would be converted into $33.00 in cash. The Form 15 that Wackenhut filed on 8 May 2002 covers both classes and gives the approximate number of holders of record as 1, without naming that holder.
No later filing reviewed names the holder of this corporation’s shares. The dated changes higher up the former G4S group in 2021 are set out in the group structure section; none of those documents names the current shareholder of G4S Secure Solutions (USA) Inc. Who owns G4S Secure Solutions (USA) Inc. today is therefore not established from public records, and no percentage is published here.
Data availability
Not public. Florida does not publish shareholders of a private corporation, and the company has filed no SEC reports since its registration ended in May 2002. Under FinCEN’s final rule of 11 August 2026, effective 14 August 2026, U.S. companies are exempt from beneficial ownership information reporting, so the company has no BOI reporting obligation. The provider’s shareholder field holds only a generic US notice and no shareholder rows. That notice says SEC-registered companies disclose their shareholders; this company was SEC-registered only until 2002.

Officers
Directors and officers of G4S Secure Solutions (USA) Inc.
Florida, the state of incorporation, publishes the company’s directors and officers from its annual reports. The latest report was filed on 28 April 2026, and the July 2026 data file lists six current appointments. The directors are Steven S. Jones, Loretta A. Cecil and Timothy E. Brandt, each with a business address in Irvine, California. Tracy Fuller is President and Daniel W. Grizzard holds the secretary office, both based at the Jupiter, Florida office. A sixth officer, Sunni S. Richmond, holds an office whose title the bulk file truncates to “Assi”.
Connecticut’s annual report of 28 July 2026 names the same directors, with Tracy Fuller and Daniel W. Grizzard as officers. Pennsylvania’s register (updated 6 October 2026) lists Tracy Fuller as President, Daniel W. Grizzard as Secretary and Treasurer, and the three directors under its own term “Governor”. New York’s record has a different person’s name in its chief-executive field, with no date attached; that entry is not treated as current. No register read gives appointment dates. Historically, Wackenhut’s Form 15 of 8 May 2002 was signed by Alan B. Bernstein as President.
Data availability
Current only. Florida publishes names, title codes and business addresses but no appointment or resignation dates. Connecticut’s filing history records interim notices of officer or director changes on 17 June 2020 and 3 August 2021, but the documents themselves were not read, so those changes are not described. None of the sources records nationality, which is not disclosed. The provider’s officer field holds only a generic notice saying officer data is not available for this jurisdiction. That is incorrect for Florida, whose register publishes this list.

Group Structure
Group structure of G4S Secure Solutions (USA) Inc.
G4S Secure Solutions (USA) Inc. has been part of a corporate group since 2002, but no public filing reviewed names its current immediate or ultimate parent. As The Wackenhut Corporation, it was taken private under a merger agreement of 8 March 2002. According to the merger proxy, it was to survive as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Group 4 Falck A/S of Denmark.
Later filings narrow the question without answering it. The 2021 accounts of G4S US Holdings Limited (England, 06294639) describe G4S Holding One Inc as its only investment and record the sale of “the G4S Holding One Inc business” on 27 July 2021, without naming the buyer. The 2025 consolidated accounts of G4S Limited (England, 04992207, formerly G4S plc) list neither this company nor G4S Holding One among the group’s subsidiaries. Those accounts name Atlas UK Bidco Limited as G4S Limited’s immediate parent and Atlas Ontario LP, an Ontario limited partnership, as its ultimate parent and controlling party. None of these documents places the US company in that group today.
Verified corporate relationships

| Group 4 Falck A/S | Denmark | Not stated in the filings | Ultimate parent after the 2002 merger (historical) | Indirect; wholly owned per the merger proxy | Historical; current status not established | Proxy 9 April 2002; merger filed in Florida 8 May 2002; Form 15 of the same date gives one holder of record |
| Milestone Acquisition Corporation | United States | Not stated in the filings | Merger subsidiary, merged into the company in 2002 | Not applicable | Ceased on the merger, filed in Florida on 8 May 2002 | Proxy 9 April 2002; Florida event file |
| Wackenhut Corrections Corporation (now The GEO Group, Inc.) | United States | SEC CIK 923796 | Historical subsidiary | About 57% (fiscal 2001 Form 10-K) | Ended 9 July 2003, when it repurchased its 12 million shares from Group 4 Falck | 10-K filed 4 March 2002; 10-Q filed 13 August 2003 |
Recent structural changes
- 6 April 2021: Atlas UK Bidco Limited became the person with significant control of G4S plc, now G4S Limited (Companies House).
- 27 July 2021: G4S US Holdings Limited sold the G4S Holding One Inc business, its only investment; the buyer is not named (accounts for 2021).
- 29 December 2022: Florida records a merger in which this company was the surviving corporation; the event file does not name the other parties.
Data availability
Historical and partial. The state registers read for this company record no parent or shareholder, and the company has filed nothing with the SEC since 2002, so no filing reviewed states its current parent. Federal award records list “Allied Security Holdings LLC” and “G4S PLC” among parent names linked to the company’s federal entity ID, without dates; these are treated as possible relationships only. Florida’s event file also records this company as the surviving corporation in mergers filed on 27 and 30 December 2010, again without naming the other parties.
The provider’s group tree has 325 nodes and is rooted at Atlas Luxembourg 3 SCSp. It places this company eight levels down, under G4S Holding One, Inc. and G4S US Holdings Limited. That G4S US Holdings link ended with the sale of 27 July 2021, and G4S US Holdings held no investments at 31 December 2022, 2023 or 2025. The tree omits Atlas Ontario LP, which the filings name as ultimate parent. Of the eight entities the tree lists beneath this company, none is supported by a filing as a current subsidiary. One of them, The GEO Group Foundation, Inc., is the charitable foundation of The GEO Group, Inc., which separated from this group in July 2003. Another, Tuhnekcaw, Inc., is described in a 2003 filing as an indirect subsidiary of Group 4 Falck, not of this company. The remaining nodes of the tree are unverified.
